Sen. Edward M. Kennedy: 1932-2009

~





Kennedy, the youngest of nine children born into a legendary political family, died Tuesday after battling a malignant brain tumor for more than a year.

Known as the "liberal lion of the Senate," he served for nearly 47 years, fighting for causes dear to his heart such as civil rights, welfare and healthcare.
